Chapter 400

Cheng Nuo, who was not lightly surprised by the chats of several bigwigs, found a vacant seat and had breakfast sullenly.

I thought that a few bigwigs were talking about what the university had hired and which professor had been hired, and who had published high-end academic achievements in a certain field.

But I didn't expect to talk about what kind of League of Legends, the three-body ......

This doesn't match the painting style of a few bigwigs at all?!

After breakfast, Cheng Nuo finally stopped worrying about these.

Sneaking back to the tenth floor, Cheng Nuo knocked on Tan Weiwei's door.

"Who?"

"It's me, Cheng Nuo. ”

Pushing the door in, Tan Weiwei was sitting on the dresser with makeup.

Tan Wei coiled up her long hair, put on a wig set for short hair, and then put on a pair of black-framed eyes with thick lenses.

"We look a little too young, and we're a little conspicuous in our thirties and forties, so it's better to dress up a little older. Tan Weiwei explained to Cheng Nuo.

Tan got up slightly, put the fake mustache prepared in advance on Cheng Nuo's chin, looked it up and down, felt that something was wrong, and put on the spare glasses she had prepared for Cheng Nuo. "Ah, that's a lot more pleasing to the eye. ”

Cheng Nuo chatted a little in Tan Weiwei's room, and when the time came to 7:45, the two rushed to the auditorium on the first floor.

Since both of them were dressed as waiters, they easily blended into the auditorium. However, there were no seats in the auditorium.

The two of them don't care, it's good to be able to mix in, even if there are empty seats, the two people who are currently playing the role of waiters don't dare to sit down!

The two stood in the corner, waiting for the opening ceremony to begin.

Outside the auditorium, the participating mathematicians entered the hall one after another.

Cheng Nuo kept staring at the entrance of the auditorium, looking at the mathematicians who only existed on papers.

In today's mathematical community, led by the four countries of the United States, Yingguo, Degu and Switzerland, the first echelon is formed, so more than 2,000 mathematicians invited to participate in this International Congress of Mathematicians, more than 1,000 mathematicians are from these four countries.

Therefore, most of the people sitting in the auditorium are Western faces.

And Huaguo, which is currently between the second and third echelons, has only more than 80 mathematicians invited.

Cheng Nuo's mentor at Tsinghua University, Professor Fang Ruoyu, also received an invitation for the publication of the paper on proving the weak BSD conjecture.

When he saw Professor Fang and two young mathematicians in their early thirties walking in, Cheng Nuo wanted to step forward and say hello, but after thinking about it for a while, Cheng Nuo still held back.

If your identity is revealed on the first day, it will be a blood loss.

By 7:55 a.m., most of the mathematicians had entered, except for the top ones, of course.

Although the International Mathematical Union did not publicly announce the list of mathematicians participating in this year's conference, Cheng Nuo still learned a lot of information from Tan Weiwei's uncle.

This year's conference will be attended by 13 Philippine Award winners.

Add in the four Fields Medals that will be awarded, and that makes a total of seventeen.

This lineup can be described as quite luxurious.

As strong as Princeton University, with a history of 100 years, there are only 15 Filipino Prize winners.

In the first row of the auditorium, there are more than 20 seats, and in addition to the thirteen Philippine Prize winners, there are several bigwigs of the International Mathematical Union.

In the second row, there are several mathematicians nominated for this year's Philippine Prize.

...............

At eight o'clock, in the anticipation of everyone, the 29th International Congress of Mathematicians officially opened.

The first item of the opening ceremony was naturally the usual speech session.

Mr. Kenneth Halstead, the current President of the International Union of Mathematicians, gave a short speech and summarized the many achievements in the field of mathematics in the past four years.

At the same time, he highly praised and affirmed the current situation of the thriving mathematical community and the vigorous development of research work, and hoped that mathematicians from all over the world would make persistent efforts to make greater contributions to the development of the world mathematical community.

Cheng Nuo almost rolled his eyes and listened to the president's speech.

The official tone of this president is simply a fight with some politicians in China!

After the president finished speaking, a member of the government of the United States spoke a few words on behalf of the country. The general content is that the government of the United States has arranged what kind of preferential policies for their group of mathematicians, welcome to live in the United States for a long time, of course, if you change to the nationality of the United States, it is even more welcome.

An hour later, when Cheng Nuo's upper eyelids and lower eyelids were fighting, the boring speech session finally ended.

Cheng Nuo immediately became energetic.

Next, the highlight of this year's mathematicians conference is the awarding of awards.

In fact, the so-called award is not the Fields Medal. However, because the Philippine Prize is too representative and the gold content is the highest among all mathematics awards, it is well-known to everyone.

In addition to the Fields Medal, the conference also presented three or four awards, including the Wanlina Prize in the field of information science, the Gauss Award in the field of applied mathematics, and the Lilavoti Award for Outstanding Contribution to the Public Promotion of Mathematics.

As the main event, the award of the Fields Medal must be placed last.

Cheng Nuo crossed his arms in the corner and watched quietly.

The Wan Lina Prize in the field of information science was won by two mathematicians from New York University and Cambridge University.

The Gauss Prize, named after the great mathematician Gauss, was awarded to a mathematician from the island nation who majored in mathematical physics.

The Lilavoti Prize was awarded to a young professor from Switzerland.

The Fields Medal is presented by the President of the International Union of Mathematicians.

Mr. Kenneth stood on the podium with an envelope in his hand, "The name of the Fields Medal winner is written in this envelope in my hand, and now, let's open him." ”

Mr. Kenneth opened the envelope, took out one of the cards inside, and said aloud, "I now announce to you that the mathematician who won the twenty-ninth Fields Medal is ......."

"Professor Francisco from ETH Zurich, Switzerland!"

"Professor Xayi from Princeton University!"

"Professor Bikal from the University of Cambridge in Yingguo!"

"Professor Sun Zeyuan from the National University of Singapore!"

Not surprisingly, no Chinese mathematician has won the Philippine Prize.

Wei Shen and Yun Shen, who are highly expected in China, will not have hope until at least the next session.

The four award-winning mathematicians, in the envious eyes of everyone, stood up and walked onto the stage of the auditorium.

The award period of the Philippine Award is set at the age of forty, so the appearance of the four of them does not look big. But the achievements in the field of mathematics are no less than those of some veteran mathematicians.

Needless to say, Francisco, from the University of Zurich in Switzerland, will not be impossible to become the first person in mathematics in a decade as long as he maintains the momentum he has now.

The other three, except for the one from the National University of Singapore, who is a bit weak, the remaining two are also among the leaders in their respective fields.

With the Philippine Prize in hand, the status of the four of them as mathematicians can be further improved.
